MEMBER PROFILE

Vivian Crick has worked over thirty years as an occupational therapist in workplace rehabilitation, health, safety and wellbeing. She is now a master coach practitioner with certification in Neuro-linguistic programming and hypnosis practice. She has a metastatic breast cancer diagnosis and so is giving back while she can to the more than 20,000 individuals who will be diagnosed with breast cancer every year in Australia. This means families and friends are impacted. Workplaces are affected and health professionals are pressured to provide not only medical care but also ways and means to navigate this disease and treatment process. Viv dedicates her time to helping those touched by a breast cancer diagnosis, how to emotionally manage fear, relationships, communication, quality of life and regaining identity. Her professional background and lived experience places her well to empower women and their supports to rise to thrive.
